"I think I'm actually gonna graduate."
Eddie's mumble quietly rolled from his lips. The softness hidden in Steve's eyes caused tears to fall from his own. They trickled over the bridge of his nose sideways down his face.

"I think it's my year, Harrington,"
Eddie tilted his head back and rested it against Steve's arm. 
"I think it's finally my year."

Steve hurriedly began to lift him bridal-style. "We aren't doing this. Get up."


After killing Vecna (or so they think), Steve finds himself coming to the aid of a bloodied, wounded Eddie. Bound by trauma and nearly identical scars, the two realize they can only find relief from the unrelenting nightmares through each other -- but there's something else brewing between them that Steve refuses to acknowledge. While the party stays at the hospital with an assumably braindead Max, Will begins to discover that he might play a bigger role in protecting Hawkins than he thought.

steve harrington x FEM! reader all rights go to the duffer brothers for the main story (along with the script) and characters. I'm just some silly person who thinks writing is fun. Y/n, her story and such, is the only person in this fic who belongs to me. this will be updated when season 5 comes out, as the plot points in this book will be determined on how s5 turns out! in the meantime feel free to enjoy my story and i'll update it when the last season comes out, so for now, this book will be marked as complete (even though it isn't yet) :) "Steve Harrington you are a complete and utter idiot and doofus." "Hey but at least I'm your doofus, doofus." .... Y/N is Dustin Hendersons cousin, as well as the most treasured party member among the group consisting of Mike, Dustin, Will, and Lucas. When Will goes missing, you vow yourself that you will find him, no matter the cost. Little do you know that the cost may be putting aside your petty dislike towards Steve 'The King' Harrington in order to find him. Maybe developing a small crush towards him throughout your adventures and shared trauma while you're at it. ..... slow burn. SLOW. BURN. the slowest of burns you've EVER seen. ... maybe not. but still very slow burn, you won't fall in love at first sight that's for sure. just expect one helluva ride ;) s1 ✅ s2 ✅ s3 ✅ s4 in progress... #2 in steveharringtonxreader #2 in dustinhenderson #1 in hawkinsindiana started : 6.15.22 finished : _._._

Bless you hellichk.tumblr.com for this absolutely lovely cover I want to print and frame it and keep it forever. I DO NOT take any credit for their art. Steve(21) Hasn't had a chance to leave this awful place. He has stayed around for the kids, wanting nothing more to be there for each one's graduation. Confused. Lonely. Depression has really started to hit in the last couple of years after all of the tragic losses to the upsidedown. Nearly losing everything and everyone he's cared for and loved. Most everyone has gotten their chance to escape, Nancy and Jonathan moved to California after graduation. Robin's off at college. Until he realizes maybe he's not so alone here, sparking a true friendship with the most unlikely person, Eddie Munson. Eddie(22) hasn't been able to get out of this town either after swearing he would get the hell out of here many years ago. The kids are all graduating this year, which will most likely end up giving the two now men, no reason to stick around anymore. But what will happen to the two friends when Steve realizes the feelings he's thought for so long to just be a platonic friendship have always been a little more? I do not own rights to the ST characters or themes but I do own rights to my own storyline. I will be using pictures from artists that I find as the art for each chapter. I don't think I could draw enough to cover a whole book so pls don't credit me for those either. Thx. 🙏 ~🖤K

52 parts Complete Mature

She didn't know any better. Years of being raised by the evil entity that was once Henry Creel skewed her view of the world she once lived in. When Y/N is sent by him from the Upside Down to infiltrate those that so tediously continue to thwart his plans, she ends up finding something with someone that she never could have expected. Will she betray the one who raised her, who helped her escape that horrific lab? Or will she help him burn it all to the ground? One thing was for sure. There was only one thing that might change her mind... She just doesn't doesn't even know he exists... Yet. ( Set from the beginning of S4 once flashbacks cease but reader has been part of prior Vecna plans. Reader is over 18/older than El to fit with Steve without it being weird and has powers; is 002 in this story so assume the bullies in the show were 003 upwards. Long-ish intro with flashbacks to try and make it make sense lmfao but only a few chapters. Please read TW's before reading and let me know if there's anything I missed. TW: Violence, brainwashing, death, both mental and physical abuse, manipulation, smut in later chapters, fem!Reader, angst )
